When my own parenting comes back to me

After taking a toy away from Tyler that he had just taken from Bryce "Can I tell you something? You said 'We don't take toys away from people.'"

Walking into the room while Tyler is watching The Lion King. "This movie isn't for you, Mom. Its too scary for you. Its only for me."

My personal favorite during FHE last week: We were talking about Samuel the Lamanite and explaining that he was a prophet like President Monson and he was trying to teach people how they can be happy just like President Monson. Then Tyler says "Yeah Mom needs to listen to the prophet so she can be happy and not get mad at me." (Ouch..)

  1. No one will keep you as honest as your own child. They can smell out any form of hypocrisy (intentional or unintentional).
    And, it's only the beginning!
